Everest Academy is a ministry of Everest Family Church in Hayden. We offer freedom along with quality resources, information, activities and support to those homeschooling in Alabama. We believe that the parent has the best interests of their children at heart. We believe that the parent is the first and only teacher that a child needs. In keeping with this philosophy, we wish to be a very hands-off church "cover" school and allow the parent to lead and guide their children in the direction and at the pace they feel is best suited to their children. We ask only for what the law requires while offering support along with quality resources to aid families in their efforts.

Homeschooling Statistics


Naysayers - One who frequently engages in excessive complaining, negative banter and/or a genuinely poor and downbeat attitude.  Now you can shut up those uninformed, annoying homeschooling naysayers.  


Have you ever been in a situation where you know what you are talking about, but you just don't know how to put it in words?  Do any of you have an annoying family member or friend who gives you grief about your decision to homeschool?  Now you can arm yourself with researched homeschooling statistics!
